After the divorce, the four big guys became my servants

The closer he got to his hometown, the more timid he felt. The closer he got to the quiet courtyard in the valley, the faster Zhaoge's heart beat.

She hadn't seen him for a year and didn't know how he had changed. Li Yang also said that he had been poisoned. She was afraid that she would be stunned when she saw him.

It was not until she walked into the courtyard that she saw a familiar figure.

The man was sitting under the eaves, in a wheelchair. He was wearing brown clothes and had a thin body. His bony fingers were touching a white cat.

Zhao Ge's figure entered the man's sight. He should have clearly seen her, but until Zhao Ge came closer, his eyes were still unfocused, as if he had seen nothing.

She held out a hand and waved it in front of his face.

Pei Yu still had no expression. He just felt a little wind and was stunned for a moment. Then, he said calmly: "Why are you here again? Didn't you say you were going to travel around the world?"

He thought she was Princess Liyang.

Zhao Ge's tears were already flowing. She covered her mouth with one hand and said in a trembling voice, "Pei Yu, it's me."

The man under the eaves paused, his lifeless pupils froze, his whole body stiffened, and the cat in his arms took the opportunity to escape.

"Did I hear you wrong?"

He reacted, as if he had thought of something, but found it ridiculous and smiled at himself.

"Why are you dreaming in broad daylight?"

"Pei Yu." A clear female voice with a crying tone came again. Zhao Ge squatted down and put his hands on his slightly cold hands.

"It's me. It's me."

Pei Yu's Adam's apple moved, and his thin lips slightly opened. There was still uncertainty in his voice, "Zhao Ge?"

"it's me."

As if he had completely confirmed that it was her, Pei Yu was rarely flustered. He lowered his eyes evasively and actually pulled his hands away.

"You, why are you here? Could it be Li Yang?"

Before, Li Yang did say that he wanted to bring her to Dongdu, but he just thought it was just a momentary impulse.

He didn't expect that she would actually appear in front of him.

Therefore, Pei Yu was panicked. He didn't know how to face her with such a crippled body.

Seeing that he was rejecting her so abnormally, Zhao Ge paused, but then realized what was going on.

She could not hide her grief, and tears rolled down her cheeks as she lowered her head.

Tears fell onto Pei Yu's hands. He was startled and tried in a panic to wipe her tears.

"Why are you crying? Don't cry, it's all my fault, it's all my fault..."

But no matter how hard those hands tried to touch Zhao Ge, they were powerless.

Zhao Ge held his wrist and said in a hoarse voice, "It's not your fault, it's all my fault. I thought I was smart, but I believed your excuses so easily. I didn't even ask anyone about your whereabouts, and I still blamed you for not writing to me."

"Pei Yu, I couldn't even avenge you. If I knew that Yu Wenlian had attacked you, I would never let him go!"

When saying this, Zhao Ge's voice was filled with strong hatred.

If she felt a little guilty about his death in the past, Zhao Ge now hated him so much!

She only regretted that she couldn't kill Yu Wen Lian with her own hands!

Having said that, if Pei Yu still doesn’t understand the ins and outs of the matter, he would be a complete fool.

"Liyang told you everything."

He sighed and shook his head: "Don't blame yourself, I don't blame you, this is my own choice."

"Besides, aren't all the Yuwen family dead? You have avenged me. Let's meet again. Let's talk about something happy. Have you married Master Yuan?"

In order to divert Zhaoge's attention, he suppressed the pain in his heart and mentioned her and Yuan Jinglie.

Zhao Ge wiped away her tears and said, "You being here doesn't prevent you from listening to what's happening outside."

"I didn't know it at first, but after Shun State was established, I knew it. People outside said that there was a fairy-like woman beside Emperor Shun."

"Don't tease me, I'm a human, not a fairy." Zhao Ge sniffed.

Pei Yu smiled and said, "I am very happy that you came to see me. Unfortunately, I can't cook now. Otherwise, I would make you something you like."

"Don't brag, I don't know your cooking skills." Zhao Ge recalled the first day they met and couldn't help but teasing him, "That mushroom soup is so unpalatable."

Pei Yu was not angry at all, but was extremely happy, smiling with great joy: "You still remember."

When old friends get together, they have a lot to talk about.

Zhao Ge told him about what he had encountered in the past year, talking about the thrilling journey from rushing to Qingzhou to the establishment of Shun Kingdom, and how fortunately he had managed to escape danger every time.

Pei Yu was also fascinated by what was said. He nodded and looked back at every sentence, occasionally agreeing with a few words, which further opened up Zhao Ge's mouth.

After talking for a long time, her mouth was dry and she felt that she had not said as much in the past year as she had said today.

At night, Zhao Ge lived directly in this small courtyard.

She cooked, tidied Pei Yu's bedding, lit a fire in the hut, and fed him hot water from a bottle.

Pei Yu was lying on the bed, feeling her tucking the quilt for him. Although he couldn't see her face, his heart was still beating wildly at her breath.

"Okay, go to sleep. We'll make dumplings tomorrow." Zhao Ge said softly.

Pei Yu nodded: "Okay."

He actually hesitated to speak.

I really want to ask her, "Will you stay?"

But she couldn't ask it in the end. If she asked it, it would be like he was using her guilt to hold her hostage.

But Zhaoge had already made a decision silently.

She would not leave, but would stay with Pei Yu and accompany him to get better treatment.

The next day, Zhao Ge went to the princess's mansion while going out to buy vegetables and meat.

"You said you wanted to stay here?" Princess Liyang had been staying in the mansion for a whole day before she came. Upon hearing what she said, she looked at her with suspicion.

"You still have such a conscience."

"I know you have misunderstood me, but Pei Yu is a very important person to me, and I will not abandon him." Zhao Ge said.

"I will accompany him to treat his illness. When he gets better, I will take him back to Fengjing and take care of him for the rest of his life."

Li Yang really wanted to ridicule her, but then she thought that with her around, Pei Yu might not be so negative.

So, he said indifferently: "It's up to you. If you need anything, just come to the princess's mansion."

Zhao Ge: "Great! Then I want two pounds of pork and three cabbages now!"

“……” Liyang rolled her eyes.

From that day on, Zhao Ge settled down in Dongdu.

Under Zhaoge's insistence, Pei Yu finally gave in and agreed to be treated. Princess Liyang sent doctors from the palace one after another, but all they could do was to slow down his worsening condition.

Every imperial physician who returned to the palace shook his head.

I've never seen such a strange disease!

They didn't know how to treat it because there was nothing wrong with the man's pulse!

But despite this, the imperial doctors did not dare to tell the truth.

Because Pei Yu was obviously at the end of his life, and his physical condition had deteriorated so badly, wouldn't it be a laughing stock if these imperial doctors said they didn't know how to treat him?

Therefore, they boiled bowl after bowl of medicine, just to keep Pei Yu alive.
